Alaska police arrested the 32-year-old son of actors Antonio Sabato Jr. and Virginia Madsen in connection with a fatal Monday morning hit-and-run in Anchorage.
Jack Sabato was driving a white Chevrolet Tahoe when he fatally struck pedestrian Carl Simmonds at about 5:35 a.m. near Airport Heights Drive and DeBarr Road, according to the charging documents.
Police traced the damaged SUV to Mr. Sabato’s workplace using surveillance footage. He later called authorities and said he thought he hit an animal while driving home from a late-night DoorDash run.
